Central Louisiana Arts & Healthcare
Welcome to
Arts & Healthcare
The mission of Central Louisiana Arts & Healthcare is to provide innovative arts programming in healthcare settings..... to promote healing for patients, respite for family members and stress relief for medical personnel. Our major goals are to increase overall patient and staff satisfaction through arts-based stress relief, provide patients with arts experiences that assist with the healing process, and create a warmer, uplifting and welcoming hospital environment.
​
The pandemic was very difficult in the arts community. We are slowly re-emerging to bring our programs (once again) to healthcare facilities in our community. Please check our our Current Programs page in the Menu to view the schedule of events and find out about what we are doing in the community.
We are currently offering music programs at both CHRISTUS St. Frances Cabrini Hospital and Rapides Regional Medical Center.
